Booting from DOS sucks,and is a waste of good flash drive space, surely youcan boot
straight into Linux ??? It is actually simpler to implement and more robust.
Use the Sandisk compact flash it is small, removeable and has a standard
IDE interface. 4 to 48 Mb . Requires no drivers.

Cost wise very similiar. Both have limited write lifetimes ( however there are
waysaround this ). On total ease of implementation the Sandisk is better ( especially
development ).
How do I know this ( I have tried both and used the Sandisk in anger with excellent
results ).
